Comments Thread For: Andre Ward on Beterbiev Looking 'Beatable': 'You Will See More Guys Trying to Fight Him Now'

[NotWoke=Woke]

Coming from the CoWard that had to RETIRE rather than honor the IBF mando vs Beterbiev. We all know Ward was scared, and knew he couldn't beat that man on his best day, so he went and tried to fight Bellew and couldn't secure that fight so he retired in shame after robbing an overrated Kovalev twice. No wonder JayZ chose Ward as his boy. Two lazy cowards.

What's up with all the hate towards Ward,?

did ya watch his fights? garbage cheat fests, also the entitled attitude that he carried with him his entire career getting his way every single time he wanted it. super six all home fights? sure! hbo tryign to force me to fight bute and ggg? LETS GO TO COURT! I DESERVE EASY FIGHTS! DMITRIY SARTISON LOL! ill fight ggg if he postpones the canelo fight for a year! oh he didnt agree to a ****** deal? lil g ducking! kovalev robbery and pretending he won when he knows he lost. should have just said yeah he beat me lets rematch(cleanly but that didnt happen...)just stuff like that

Everyone don't have the same opinion on the things you brought up tho. Especially that GGG thing, I thought everyone was in agreement G ain't want no parts and his career afterwards backed it up, while Ward moved up immediately and fought Sergey, while GGG....never moved up and fought cans in between waiting on money fights.

Probably the only thing "everyone" on NSB is in agreement with is that WBC prez Sulaiman is a pimp.

ward is just lucky he never fought beterbiev. wards headbutts wouldnt have slowed beterbiev down much, then again ward would just keep doing it over and over while wrestling and lowblowing. that could take a toll

Not if Ward is allowed to use his super flying headbutt from across the ring, the same he used against Kessler.

That **** would hurt even the likes of Oliver McCall

yeah but unfortunately the facts back me up. i know ward fans made up a nice little story that they kept telling themselves over and over and over again to convince themselves that was the case but saying something over and over does not make it true. ggg wanted ward and ward wanted no part of him. bute wanted ward and ward said he had to beat someone. froch wanted ward in the uk but ward refused to travel. thats why he got kicked off hbo. his own promoter even said in court ward didnt want to fight the guys hbo wanted: bute, ggg, froch, and ward thought he was entitled to fight anyone he wanted even going behind hbos back to make a fight with dmitri sartison after hbo told him no. thats the whole reason he went to court and guess what? ward lost! also to put this in context of the times ward was trying to fight dmitri sartison, caleb truax, and kelly pavlik. you can research all that. its true. ward wanted easy fights and was only allowed back on hbo if kovalev was part of the deal.

and now lets move on to wards "offer" Michael Yormak of Roc Nation, representing Ward, responded by pointing out that GGGs team turned the offer down in 36 minutes. They had not known the Lemieux fight had already been signed, he claimed, and countered that since the proposal stipulated that both fighters would have one interim bout before meeting in 2016, essentially it made no difference to the deal.

now lets cross reference that with known facts and statements from the wbc president which happened before wards offer Jun 17, 2015 "We can confirm that the winner must face our interim champion, Golovkin. It's a fight that has to happen, the winner can not face someone else."

cotto-canelo happened in november 2015 so as you can see there was no way ggg was fighting ward in 2016 when he was under the impression he was getting canelo next. you cant assume they are going to duck him and you should be asking if wards team thought ggg was available as they said why did they not just offer to fight him in 2015? SUSPECT! FAKE OFFER! a real offer would be to fight ggg in 2015 when they knew he was available and this is according to them! they knew he wasnt available in 2016 and tried to fight him then lmao! BS!

Moved up immediately...following what? The Super 6 was over in Dec 2011 and he couldn't make 168 anymore after his lawsuit in 2015.

some random coverage of andre ward and the opponents he tried to fight during his heyday

Ward’s management had a deal made with Sartison’s team, but they were unable to go ahead with it after HBO rejected the fight.
What’s surprising is that Ward’s promoter made the effort to put the Sartison fight together, because it’s been common knowledge that HBO wasn’t interested in televising the Ward-Sartison fight.

In case you missed it last night,Andre Ward and his reps try to get HBO to green light Dmitri Sartison and Caleb Truax as opponents

Andre Ward vs Marco Antonio Periban ... Fight is 70% done according to Ward

and we all remember ward vs pavlik lmao

When he came back he took a tune up then fought Sergey
